But the arrival of Edward, her daughter s future father-in-law, presents Kate with an unexpected choice. It looks like real happiness may require a slight change of plan." Contributor Bio:  Ernst, Dee Dee Ernst attended Marshall University, where she majored in journalism. Several years, career changes, and a few daughters later, she heard a guest on a radio show make the suggestion that if you want to be happy, you should go back to what you were doing when you were ten and try to make it a career. Since Dee was writing stories when she was ten, she decided to give writing another go. After three novels and many rejection letters, she self-published Better Off Without Him. In the spring of 2013, she signed with Montlake Publishing. Though Dee finds a lot in common with all her heroines, she is happily married and living in New Jersey.
